    They’re talking about the ads on the site, not on Google.

    Basically saying if this helps them find sites that focus on content and not extracting profit, they won’t have an issue with it.

      Yep, I get it. Effectively block ads and javascript and it doesn’t much matter what a site wants to do. I skip the few that have actually effective paywalls (as opposed to just putting a div over content on the page - as far as I’m concerned, if it’s downloaded to my computer, I am allowed to read it). Of course, the sites that load up on ads tend to be pretty low-quality content anyhow.
